TrueSavings September 2 to 15, 2015 — Great Savings for Labor Day Weekend

September 04, 2015

It’s the end of the summer and Labor Day weekend is here, making this a great time to shop for a new car. To help you in your search, we’ve selected five vehicles that are likely to be the best deals available over the Labor Day weekend. The deals here could help you save thousands off your next new car, thanks to the car-buying incentives available for shopping over the holiday and the week beyond.

These five cars offer discounts off Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Pricing (MSRP) as great as 18.9 percent or $6,240. Whether you’re looking for something super roomy, luxurious, or fuel efficient, if you’re planning to go car shopping between September 2 and 15, 2015, keep these five great deals in mind as you do your research.

Because these great deals include an assortment of body styles, the included chart also lists fuel economy figures to help you compare what each vehicle could cost at the pump. The best numbers in this edition come from the 2015 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid, which offers 36 MPG city and 40 MPG on the highway.

The 2015 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid boasts an eye-catching design and a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine combined with a 35kW electric motor mated to a six-speed automatic transmission to promise 199 net horsepower and fuel efficiency of 36 MPG city/40 MPG highway/38.1 MPG combined. Hyundai’s midsize hybrid sedan offers a potential 18.9 percent discount, which translates to a possible $5,074 savings — bringing the national market average price of Hyundai’s well-equipped hybrid Sonata down from an MSRP of $26,825 down to a very affordable $21,751 — or about $261 per month after a 20 percent down payment.

Now in its fourth generation, the 2015 Nissan Pathfinder sport utility vehicle offers fuel economy of 19 MPG city, 26 MPG highway, and 22.3 combined. With a national market average of $27,842 and a monthly payment of about $333, Nissan’s midsize 4WD Pathfinder offers a potential savings of 13.5 percent — or up to $4,363 — less than the $38,635 MSRP in S trim. Seating seven with a passenger volume of 158 cubic feet and 18 cubic feet behind its third row, or as much as 79.8 behind just two passengers, the Nissan Pathfinder offers functional flexibility for lots of passengers and cargo.

The 2015 Volkswagen Jetta offers a potential discount of up to 12.7 percent, which translates into a potential savings of as much as $2,303, bringing the MSRP of the small sedan in S trim with manual transmission from $18,145 down to a wallet-friendly market average price of $15,842. Its estimated monthly payment of $190 makes the Jetta the least expensive vehicle on this list. Under hood, the Jetta combines a 115-horsepower 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with a five-speed manual transmission to achieve fuel economy ratings of 25 MPG city, 34 MPG highway, and 29.3 MPG combined.

This collection of great Labor Day deals also includes the 2015 Toyota Camry, carrying a national market average price of $23,805 and a monthly payment of about $251. That’s a comfortable 11.9 percent discount, or up to $2,828 off the already affordable $23,805 MSRP for Toyota’s popular sedan in LE trim. Fuel economy is about 25 MPG city, 35 highway, and 29.7 combined. Completely redesigned for 2015, Toyota claims the Camry remains America’s best-selling sedan because it offers customers an ideal combination of spaciousness, value, safety, performance, comfort and reliability in the midsize segment.
